Tothis end the paper web' is submitted to a craping or gofiering process for instance in its wet state and on the paper machine and thus provided with 'craped creases, which are during the drying process submitted to a pressure greater than that produced by the drier felt tending to press the creases or ridges produced in the gofi'ering act together or crush them down in such a manner that a paper is obtained, which is firm in its creases and little liable to yield. At the same time a guiding or leading of the craped paper web during the drying process can be effected in such a manner, that the craped creases or crapage imparted to the paper web as well as the highly increased surface once obtained are maintained.
